I love my book club. We’ve been together for 24 years. Some of us have been there from the beginning and others have come and gone over time. Our newest member joined in September. I use the words “joined” and “member” loosely as there is no membership criteria beyond a love of good conversation over […] Read more

Beef stroganoff history — a mix of fact and fancy

Prairie Palate: Many think it’s a Hungarian dish but it actually originated in Russia

By
For some time I have been under the erroneous assumption that beef stroganoff is a Hungarian dish. Must be the paprika and sour cream.

The federal government is updating Canada’s Food Guide and I say it’s about time. I have a few bones to pick with the last one.

Today, I would like to tell you about the time I kept a New Year’s resolution all the way into August. Yes, eight months. No fails.

By
Have we forgotten the pleasure of picnicking?
